Sarkozy-Bush: No-Popularity Contest
The company President Nicolas Sarkozy is keeping these days is unlikely to help reverse his flaccid approval rating. As the week wound down, Sarkozy welcomed President George W. Bush for a valedictory visit by a leader whose own poll numbers are even worse than the French President's - and who is arguably the least loved head of state in the Western world. Nor would Sarkozy have done much to improve his own popularity by inviting Syria's President Bashir al-Assad to be a guest of honor at France's Bastille Day parade. (France has long been at loggerheads with the notoriously authoritarian Assad regime over Syria's role in Lebanon, and particularly in respect of its alleged hand in the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister and French ally Rafic Hariri.)
